No Debian 9 image, 2/10.
Now that there's Linode for $5, what are they hoping to achieve being 2x more expensive? Or maybe they just forgot to maintain the service and keep plans competitive, same as forgot to add the Debian 9 image.
With $10/mo you only get 2.5 months, that's not worth it bothering to sign up and enter your data.
Still no SSH key support and also kernel fuckery, 1/10.
Dunno what you mean, IIRC on Linode you can easily run your own kernel (unlike old DO or current Scaleway), now that it's KVM I believe there's not even the need to bother with pyGrub anymore.
They are the world's fastest cloud you know. Their price is expensive. So that must be true.
Are there any reviews about Upcloud.com?
Who cares if there are script kiddies behind it. Get that money.
Mail1: "Hello Butters,
Thank you for contacting UpCloud.
I had been monitoring the sign ups and all new sign ups via that link has been given the $25 in credits.
Are you having issues personally? I’m thinking perhaps the users did not sign up via the link which placed them in our usual trial mode.
Kind regards,
Kelvin Tan"
Mail 2: "I did additional tests to confirm, credits are still automatically credited upon sign up via the link."
take a look at https://community.centminmod.com/threads/upcloud-feedback.9450/
Thank! That's what I need.
What's up cloud
not so much idiots just sending me proprietary, private information as usual- you?
$10/m Upcloud VPS benchmarks done https://community.centminmod.com/threads/upcloud-com-kvm-vps-benchmarks-10-month.12349/
i was also impressed by the bench and fast support. to my info this is the only hourly provider that has Helsinki as a location.
They have also the best SLA compensation for the price you pay
From 5 minutes means that they have an SL of 100-5/(302460)*100%=99.988. Yet they claim 100%.
Furthermore, looking at the rackspace SLA, it seems that if your vps is down for 20h, you get 100% of your monthly fee back. At upcloud that would be 1000 hours worth of payments (50*20h), aka 140% of what you paid for. Not all that big of a difference imo.
Their SLA is good, yes, but not the be-all end-all. Digitalocean start paying out earlier (99.99% means 260 seconds downtime, slightly shorter than upcloud's 5 minutes), and elastichosts has 100x multiplier compared to upcloud's 50x.
but i can't find a 1CPU CORE, 1GB, 30GB SSD, 2TB TRANSFER instance at rackspace or elastichosts for 10 $
